Cassini approaches Saturn

Every day, NASA shares a different image of the universe in what it calls Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD).  And every now and again, the picture is actually a video.

Today’s is particularly spectacular.  As the Cassini spacecraft approached Saturn, it took thousands of images along the way.  Recently, some of these images have been digitally tweaked, cropped, and compiled into this video.
